Abstract

The prevalence of celiac disease in Omani children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus is similar to the World's reported prevalence, but is less than that reported for Middle Eastern Arab children. To our knowledge, this is the first reported study on the prevalence of celiac disease in Omani children with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
